It is located on the banks of the Danube River, near the town of Kozloduy, about 200 kilometers northwest of the capital Sofia and bordering Romania. Its strategic importance for the energy security of the country and the entire region is undeniable, as it produces approximately 35% of Bulgaria&#039;s total electricity.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">Historical review<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">Construction of the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant began in 1969, when Bulgaria was under Soviet influence. The project was part of the then Soviet policy of developing nuclear power in the Eastern Bloc countries. The first reactor (Unit 1) was commissioned in 1974, and by 1982 a total of four VVER-440\/V230 reactors had been commissioned.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">Later, in the 1980s, two additional and more advanced VVER-1000\/V320 reactors (Units 5 and 6) were added, significantly increasing the plant&#039;s production capacity. Thus, at the peak of its operation, Kozloduy had a total of six reactors with a total production capacity of approximately 3,760 MW.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">European Union accession and its implications<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">Bulgaria&#039;s path towards EU membership brought significant changes to the operation of the Kozloduy nuclear power plant. The four oldest reactors (Units 1-4) were deemed by the EU to be non-compliant with European safety standards, despite having undergone extensive upgrades.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">As a result and as a condition for the country&#039;s accession to the EU, Bulgaria was forced to:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Terminate the operation of Units 1 and 2 in 2002<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Decommission Units 3 and 4 in 2006<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">This event caused strong reactions in Bulgarian society and politics, as the shutdown of the four reactors significantly reduced the country&#039;s energy self-sufficiency. Many Bulgarians considered this decision unfair, arguing that the reactors had been sufficiently upgraded to meet international safety standards.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">Current situation<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">Currently, the Kozloduy nuclear power plant operates with two reactors (Units 5 and 6), which have a total capacity of 2,000 MW. These two reactors have been granted a license to extend their operation until 2047 and 2051 respectively, after extensive modernization and upgrading of safety systems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">The factory now has:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Advanced monitoring and control systems<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Improved cooling and emergency management systems<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Enhanced physical protection of facilities<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Continuous monitoring by international organizations such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">Bulgaria has invested significant amounts to ensure the plant&#039;s high safety standards, while regular inspections by international bodies certify its compliance with international standards.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">Economic and environmental importance<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal\">The Kozloduy nuclear power plant plays a crucial role in Bulgaria&#039;s economy and environmental policy.
